Accenture and Blue Yonder celebrate opening of collaboration centers
The dedication ceremonies were held on 6th November in Bangalore and 8th November in Hyderabad. In attendance, among many leaders from both companies, were Accenture’s Brian McKillips, Senior Managing Director and Growth and Strategy Lead for Enterprise and Industry Technologies; Raghavan Iyer, Senior Managing Director, Accenture Advanced Technology Centers; Sanjeev Narsipur, Managing Director, Accenture’s Enterprise & Industry Technologies group; Steve Ambo, Managing Director and Lead of the Blue Yonder practice at Accenture; and Blue Yonder’s Chief Executive Officer Duncan Angove and Chief Technology Officer Salil Joshi, who all helped cut the ribbons on the two new centers.
Earlier this year, Accenture and Blue Yonder announced that they were expanding their long-standing partnership. As part of this strategic expansion, Accenture is leveraging its technology and domain expertise to support Blue Yonder in the engineering and delivery of new solutions and capabilities.
Together, the companies can help organisations compress transformation and reinvent their supply chains to fuel profitable growth and optimise costs, while doing good for people and the planet.
At the Accenture-Blue Yonder ASCENT Centers, Accenture cloud-native platform engineers and industry experts will co-innovate with Blue Yonder’s product and supply chain experts and technologists to engineer, define, validate and build new solutions natively on Blue Yonder’s Luminate® Platform. The companies will jointly take the solutions to market leveraging Accenture’s delivery experience.
